You can replicate and protect volume data in a primary system using SnapVault.
Step
- From the secondary system, enter the following command:snapvault start -S prim_system:/vol/volume_name /vol/volume_name/qtree_name
-S prim_system:/vol/volume_name specifies the volume on the primary system whose data you want to backup.
/vol/volume_name/qtree_name specifies the qtree in the secondary system where you want to store this data.
Note: The qtree that is specified for /vol/volume_name/qtree_name must not exist on the secondary system before you run the snapvault start command.
Example
systemB> snapvault start -S systemA:/vol/vol1 /vol/vol4/vol1_copySnapVault transfers the data in vol1 on primary systemA to the qtree called vol1_copy in vol4 on systemB (the secondary system). It also configures the qtree for future updates.
